for 450 rwhp, i wouldn't even bother with forged pistons and rods until/unless something actually goes, Get your KB and a
T-56. Maybe get some FR500 heads/intake/cams. I think the 99 had weaker rear axels than an 01.

got it. Don't overlook the FR500 stuff for the top though. There is alot of power to be had there and you may be able to keep your boost down while pushing similar numbers. I have a few questions. Are you looking to up the compression? Are you looking to move the powerband up into higher RPMs?
